Easy to Make

Video content creation can be intimidating, but there are lots of ways you can create content easily. The goal is to keep it simple and short to capture your viewers attention. Here are some ideas to get you started:

Share a quick writing tip – You already have a ton of know-how. A great way to engage your audience is to share what you have learned throughout your writing journey.

Share about yourself – People want to feel connected online, so share a story about your life. Let your audience know a little more about you!

Give a preview of your book – There’s nothing more enticing than an early sneak peek into something new! Connect with your audience by offering them a little look at what you’re creating.

Repost content from your other social channels – The beauty of video is that it can be easily adapted between platforms. Share what you’ve already done to reach a wider audience.

Simple Connection

Everyone watches videos, but not everyone participates or knows how to utilize video to their advantage. Remember, video is all about making quick connections with your audience. The illusion of being face-to-face gives credibility and authority by establishing an emotional connection. Make sure your video is in line with your overall branding. You want your audience to be able to recognize you when you pop up on their social media feeds. Be consistent, simple, and open and you’ll start to grow an audience.
